The 1-2-3 punch of JW, Book of Henry and JW:FK does make me wonder if Trevorrow actually knows how people work.

The first JW needed like 20+ more mins of dinos eating ppl at the park

I wonder what his Episode IX would have looked liked. Since according to some "fans" he would have supposedly saved the trilogy lol

First one's weekend internal multi was inflated by the "record weekend excellent sunday hold" factor

It’s pretty incredible how the previews and FSS numbers for TA and JW running almost identical to each other.

 

But yeah, you’re right. All the 200M+ opener have great Sunday holds. Spillover effects and them record headlines on early Sundays sure help.

People thought Safety Not Guaranteed was a quirky weirdo comedy but it was meant to be a soul searing kitchen sink drama.

Let's say 13M previews. What's the HIGHEST we see it getting off that? 125? Even that feels extra generous unless the previews tick up higher

It's definitely no coincidence that Safety Not Guaranteed wasn't written by him and that's by far his best reviewed film.

If previews end up at or around 13M, I think it will open between 115-120M.

He didn't write Book of Henry though

He did sit there and shoot those scenes and think "yes, i like this" tho

[ZattMurdock]

I've been saying that this film would bomb and people forgot that JW was all about nostalgia since the beginning of the year. But under $100m would surprise me. I think under Deadpool 2's OW seems about right.

Oh for sure I'm just saying that whether he writes or doesn't have credit for the script the results of his films are....interesting.

Just came from this. What a ride Extremely entertaining flick. 3D is great for this one too. This will be a walkup monster its a family movie and it will play like a family movie. Kids love Dinosaurs. It will do well.

Personal Asst - babysitting was not her job and a fucking 17yr old needs a sitter?  They are sitters.
